    Bark river production line?

    The Crusaders are a number of weeks away yet? Or the production line is running a number of weeks behind? I was hoping they’d have a list of release dates for each knife. Thanks for the reply mate, it’s much appreciated.

    Bark river production line?

    Bit of a weird one, but apparently Bark River show their production line schedule on their Facebook page but I haven’t got Facebook and I feel awkward letting friends and family know that I’m awaiting an expensive knife, so could someone in here have a quick look and see when they’re making the...

    Lionsteel T5

    That was my first thought but it’s pushed in as far as I can get it. Maybe it’ll go a little deeper once the leather softens.

    Lionsteel T5

    Silly question, but is your sheath popper/button really difficult to close? I have the M5 in 3v steel, which is very similar, and I genuinely can’t snap the sheath shut.

    Shipping/bringing knives home from US to UK?

    Hi, I’m hoping to get out to the US next month if the entire planet isn’t a nuclear wasteland by then. If I find a knife or two out there and want to bring them home am I OK to just stick them in my suitcase? It wouldn’t be anything crazy, probably just a Bark River Bushcrafter or maybe a...

    Lure fishing/spinning in the sea and fresh water.

    Haha, cheers. Speaking of lobsters, I was thinking of doing a day at the coast with the kids. Lob a bait rod in and leave it, spin fish when the tide’s up, and also stick 2-3 lobster pots in at low tide and check them at the next low tide.

    Lure fishing/spinning in the sea and fresh water.

    Cheers, I’ll try and stick to two hours before and an hour after high tides for now then. I don’t mind baitfishing I just find it a bit boring, I much prefer the active style of spinning but I’m just not having any luck yet.

    Lure fishing/spinning in the sea and fresh water.

    Yeah, I won’t do anything silly. The retrieval’s interesting too, I’ve seen advocates for a fast wind retrieval, one that lets the lure sink and then you lift it back up as you wind, and then others seem to pull the rod back quite hard and then wind as they point the rod back to sea.

    Lure fishing/spinning in the sea and fresh water.

    All along that North coast of the SE, from Rochester to Margate, is within a reasonable drive, and even down the East coast towards Dover. The water has been murky looking wherever I’ve tried so far, but from the spinning vids I’ve watched on Youtube the bass fisherman don’t seem to think it...

    Lure fishing/spinning in the sea and fresh water.

    I’d like to get some bass, ideally, but at the moment a whelk would be a start. Thanks for the help, mate.

    Lure fishing/spinning in the sea and fresh water.

    Hi, I’ve recently bought one of the Shimano STC spinning rods (2.4m assembled, and a casting limit of 100g), but I’ve had no luck catching anything yet. I’m in the South East of England, so have plenty of coast to choose from. I’m just after some help with general technique, lures, knowing...

    Compact sea fishing rod?

    It’s a bit early for me to recommend this Shimano, seeing as I’m yet to use it, but it sounds like the exact thing you’re after. It can cast up to 100g and it’s 2.4m long when assembled. It packs down into 4 pieces too.
